Want a gift that really stands out? Try tree gifts.
Finding a meaningful way to truly show you care can be challenging. Gifts tend to be quickly forgotten, regifted, or discarded, like flowers that wither away. That's why we offer something different: tree dedications. When you dedicate a tree in a National Forest in need of restoration, you're giving a gift that lasts, grows, and contributes to the environment. We help you make your gift matter...not just today, but for generations to come.
Why Trees? U.S. National Forests provide roughly 190 million acres of woodlands that serve as home to many species of animals. When wildfires strike, wildlife becomes displaced and the forests are badly scorched. Replanting trees can help to regrow these areas in order to ensure that they can one day become homes for wildlife again and places where families can explore and discover the beauty of nature.
So how can you help with the important work of reforestation? Trees for a Change is the answer. Trees for a Change is a service that lets you do good while giving gifts to people who matter in your life. We make it possible for you to pay to have a tree or a grove of trees planted in honor of a loved one, friend, customer or employee or in memory of a deceased person or pet. Our tree gifts cost less than the average bouquet of flowers, and they make a big difference for U.S. National Forest lands.
The U.S. Forest Service has identified MILLIONS of acres of National Forest land that are in "desperate need of restoration," areas where fire has destroyed the forest beyond its natural ability to regrow itself. Our trees are always planted in these special areas- the areas that need the most help right now . Forests that used to be thriving and green would be dead and desolate for decades to come without our help. Planting trees with us offers these forests new hope.
We are the ONLY tree gift company that does all this:
At Trees for a Change, we believe the most meaningful gifts leave roots, not just memories. Dedicate a tree in a fire-damaged U.S. National Forest to honor someone special. Each sapling becomes a living tribute, restoring forests while celebrating life’s moments—big or small. Whether it’s a birthday, memorial, holiday, or “just because,” your gift grows alongside the wild landscapes it helps heal.
Struggling to find unique gift ideas for women or eco-conscious friends? Skip ordinary trinkets. Send a tree as a gift that embodies hope and renewal. Every order includes a card that explains the gift and how to find out more, letting loved ones know their tree is part of a reforestation project. We’ve planted over 200,000 trees in partnership with the National Forest Services—proof that small acts create lasting change.
Every single tree makes a difference, and we're honored to do this work with your help.
